My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!

“I’m so sorry,” she said.

“He only had himself to blame for dying.” He shrugged. “Sister, there is no need for you to apologize,” Jason said in a low voice.

She suspected the story was not so simple as Jay depicted it. ‘He only had himself to blame?’ that sounded ominous. Grace was surprised. She hadn’t been expecting him to describe his father’s death that way.

“Jay, I’m not sure what you man by blaming him, perhaps it was some accident-”

“Was it? I don’t think so. He fell in love with someone he shouldn’t have fallen in love with, then when she discovered that he was useless, he was cast aside. It didn’t matter even if he kneeled down and begged. No,” Jason’s eyes darkened into an abyss. “No, that’s not entirely true.
